Yeah, it's Siobhan we only have a few more weeks so Ramadan Can you imagine? It comes up so quickly every single year? Every single year you say okay, we have time we have suddenly just comes up. So so so quickly. It's a logical Hamza de la Hamdulillah. Yeah, and And speaking of such speaking of such mashallah, we actually have a Ramadan readiness woman's conference for you all this Sunday. Are we are we familiar with that and we know what's going on? Are we coming to that inshallah
it'll be both virtual and in person. And I'm going to attempt to multitask and find the flyer for you guys and put it up in sha Allah. But I really I'm really excited actually, because it's been it's been a little while since we've done Ramadan, a woman's conference that's just on Ramadan readiness. The last one was like a couple of years ago, so it's kind of nice to have this inshallah I'm also excited mashallah because we're having you know, a couple of different of our teachers
coming in person for those so I'm just going to go ahead and tell you kind of the details so that
you know, mashallah just what I did my due diligence of doing that
but I'm excited because it starts at 3pm inshallah here at MCC on Sunday inshallah Tada and it'll go until I think six from not mistaken we first our of which is more of a spiritual kind of readiness kind of reading yourself spiritually inshallah which I'll
which I will present inshallah and then we will after a small break go into breakout rooms for each of the three methods. So Shafi, Maliki and Hanafi schools will have their each of their teachers and stuff on one isn't good he will be here so that
should be it I chose the lb here and then saw that Leila poketo will be here at each doing one of the three methods if you don't know where to go there the thick of Ramadan and fasting is similar across the medina hub. So really anywhere you go will be fine. But if there is a specific map hub that you do follow or your family culturally probably follows it might be the best place to go there and shallots Adam
and it will also be live streams. So I hope inshallah you all will come and join us and
I think I'm going to be able to share this
let's make sure it works. Let's see if it works. Well there's a million other things in the background.
Maybe
something showing Okay good,
actually, but I don't know if our zoom people can see it.
Think I was supposed to do that the other way around.
Okay,
I did the wrong thing. Mashallah, I think I'm supposed to do the Zoom people first. Mashallah. But
for those of you who are local, it'd be great. If you actually do come here in the now I think it'll make it a lot easier. The link to register is the MCC East bay.org backslash, but I'll put that in the chat for those who are on Zoom.
To be able to see
questions. Can I ask her questions about this? Does anyone questions about like the meta hub question or, or anything else for that matter?
You guys good
about
is it showing
the
I'm gonna move this out of the way.
So this is where to register for it, whether it's in person or online. And that way, you'll get the links and cellos sent to you, if you're a virtual.
Well, we see you guys, possibly
Shala. Good.
And then I always find that it's helpful to actually prep for Ramadan a few weeks before it comes in and out like the day before.
Especially especially because this is a wonderful time speaking to myself first before anyone else. If you still have days to make up for fasting This is of course, you know, the most important time to do so. Oh, thank you so much. Thank you perfect timing. Thank you. So
yes, if you have any days to make up, this would be a good time to obviously get that done, but also in general, just
kind of getting us ready spiritually, I think is really important as well. Inshallah Tada.
Okay, all of that being said,
let me get this set.
Up in Sharla now that we're here
and we can get started for today
I think we're in the right places okay and shall let's
alright.
So I understand mashallah, from the last couple of weeks that you've carried on in the book wash all of the stuff that Hassan has said that Shamita have carried on with the different names of Allah azza wa jal. How was that? Yes. is an excellent to kind of meet your other Astellas part of the Rama foundation today. It's lovely, they're lovely and I'm so glad that you guys had a chance to get to learn from them and hear from them Mashallah.
Oh yes, everyone's asking how to join I'm sorry I did say that I was going to send it to you guys one second. Sorry one minute guys.
You see East Bay
we're back slash VIP. And I will I think this is already on our Adama WhatsApp
right
or is it not
it should be but if it's not we can put it on there too and shelter
Okay, yep, thank you. Thank you for
posting up. So let's go ahead and get started. Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim was a little over a month forgot this. Too many technological things guys What is this world that we live in?
So many things depressing do very much Smilla Rahmanir Rahim masala Allahu ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa sallam Etchmiadzin
Masha Allah so we are continuing Subhanallah in difficult moments and difficult days.
And I thought Subhanallah this very next name, but we're covering in the 99 names of Allah subhanaw taala the book that we've been covering is so apt for the moment that we're in.
So it was last week you guys did a set down last week. So that's beautiful. Mashallah, we are doing today and movement and women. So before I translate this for you, I'd like you all to take a guess at how do you translate a movement? How is that translated?
How is a movement translated?
Say it again.
So, so most of the time we translate men as a believer, right? We say men, about ourselves a believer.
But telling me how does that apply to Allah azza wa jal because does that make a whole lot of sense? Can we have a few hands? Yes, go ahead.
So something about giving faith
one who faith belongs to okay that's we're getting closer. Yes.
The one who guards our faith okay. So something about Allah is doing something with our, our faith as a believer.
Me Any other guesses? Let's see. Do we have anybody else here?
infuser of faith we have other
ah, somebody says Michela to Madison is the one with whom we are safe. Interesting. So let me tell you how the name of Allah azza wa jal l movement, right? The what?
The one who grants security or like you said to matter, the one who grants safety Subhanallah and so then my next question to you will be well, if that's what I meant for Allah azza wa jal is Allah azza wa jal. His name means the one who grant security and safety. How does that connect to the fact that we normally say men is a believer? How are the two connected?
Yes.
Ah, beautiful. I love that Michela. That's definitely one of the core things that we come to. So there's a connection because she said, and I'll repeat that we are we as believers are supposed to be safe towards our fellow sisters and brothers. They should experience safety from us.
Yes.
Mentioning the book, yeah, of course, this this book is called reflecting on the names of Allah reflecting on the names of Allah Biostar that GNN use of and
